Dear Bateman Families and Friends,

Happy Summer, Bateman! It is hard to believe we have closed out the 2022-2023 school year. These last few weeks have been jam-packed with celebrations for our incredible students. It has been such a joy to see families come together to lift up our students and champion their successes.

As Summer approaches, please be aware that the school hours change, as well. If you are in need of enrolling or transferring your child, please make an appointment by emailing both Ms. Evelyn Rivera at [email protected] and Ms. Karen Coss at [email protected]. Enrollment Hours will be Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 9am - 12pm.

We look forward to sharing classroom assignments via Parent Portal in August! Educators have spent a great deal of time curating classroom organizations that are in the best interest of all students. Please see below for supply lists and other back to school events. 


Staff Updates

Ms. Asher, our amazing Social Worker, will be retiring after 33 years. Ms. Asher is one of those very special people you only hope comes into your life...and wow are we fortunate to have her in each of ours. She has supported countless students through her years here with us, creating safe spaces for every single student. Whether or not you worked closely with her, know that her work has positively made a difference in your child’s day! Ms. Asher, we will miss you dearly and we are certain your impact on our community will continue to shine through our students for years to come. Please help us in wishing her a wonderful retirement!

A few more well wishes...we wish Ms. Howland all the best as she and her family prepare to welcome their new little one - we can’t wait for your return! We would also like to wish Ms. Villaroman (World Language) and Ms. Brown (Kindergarten) best of luck as they begin new adventures in Spain and New York, respectively.  Last but certainly not least, we have two SECAs, Mr. Avila and Ms. Ormes, who will be leaving us to begin their programs towards becoming teachers. We are very proud and excited for each of them - they will always remain part of the Bateman Family!

We hope our entire community enjoys summer to the fullest - spend lots of time together as a family, read, read some more, and make countless memories. We are eager to see you in the 2023-2024 school year, ready to #BeBateman!


Best regards,

Ms. Davos & Ms. Kloepper

Dear Bateman Families and Friends,

Thank you for a fantastic year! Together, we reclaimed our ceremonies and traditions, and our core values were on display as our students grew due to our collective commitment to their education. Thank you for making this a great place for our kids to grow up!

We all beamed as our collaborative learning, musicals, concerts, field trips, and celebrations returned to full strength. Our student learning was highlighted at our most recent Network 1 Meeting at which it was announced that students in Grades K-2 achieved 140% of growth expectations, according to the iReady assessment. Scores will all be sent home for both Star360 and iReady next week with report cards.

Yesterday, our Bateman Graduation Ceremony celebrated the Class of 2023! We reflected on the incredible influence and dedication of our educators, the partnership with our families, and the accomplishments of our students. We are optimistic about their futures and their continued positive impact on our world. Our 95 Graduates will be attending nearly 30 different High Schools next year. As we shared at a recent LSC meeting, over 93% of students were awarded offers at their top 3 choices of schools. The High School selection process is dynamic in nature and with the support from Ms. Rivera, parents, and the 8th Grade Team, our graduates navigated it seamlessly. We are immensely proud of their final selections and know that they are not only set up for success but will thrive throughout their high school years and beyond.

As we move into the last week of school, please reflect on how you impacted their journey, each of our students, and each other this year. You make a difference! We invite you to also take a moment to share moments of pride with your child(ren) to continue celebrating their progress. We have so much for which to be grateful and our community has bright days ahead!

                       
Best regards,

Ms. Davos & Ms. Kloepper
